SAVE AFRICAN CHILD UGANDA

Organization Description: 

S.A.C.U. Nursery School Buwundo – Buikwe District is an orphanage school that gives free education to all vulnerable, orphans and needy children. The school offer formal education to children in the community. SACU NURSERY SHOOL BUWUNDO is located in Buikwe district, Najjembe Sub County, Buvunya Parish Buwundo village. Currently the school has no furniture and buildings as well as stationary plus teachers due to luck of funds to finance them. In the second term of this school, we plan to rent buildings and move away from tree shades and also get some good furniture because some students have no where to sit while in the class. We plan to recruit two teachers on the salary basis which will push the school ahead, other teachers will be volunteers as usually done. Therefore it is a great opportunity for you to get involved in this program. You can come and teach as part of your volunteering activity or help in the school needs
